Enterprise or Millenium Falcon
« on: January 17, 2018, 08:11:50 PM »
This is a better question to ask if it was possible.

Would you rather pilot the Millennium Falcon or sit center seat and command the Enterprise?

Chuck Norris can pick oranges from an apple tree and make the best lemonade in the world. Every morning when you wake up, swallow a live toad. Nothing worse can happen to you for the rest of the day. They say money can't buy happiness. I would like the opportunity to find out. Why be serious?

Depends..

For a fishing trip to the far planet in Betelgeuse?  The Falcon.

For A road trip to the ring nebula?  The Enterprise.

Get a big garage.. have one of each.

I’m going with the Enterprise.    Speed is everything.  Besides, it has more hot women and more private rooms.   Important.

Lucas apparently didn't know that a 'parsec' is a unit of distance: 3.08567758149137×1016 meters or 19.173511577 trillion miles or 3.261563777 light-years (based on the IAU 2012 exact SI definition of the astronomical unit). Basically, someone is bragging about a 'shortcut.'

Yes, exactly.  The shortcut took him closer to the dangerous part of kessel sector than anyone else was willing to go.  Age old argument lol  Shorter distance, far more deadly to attempt.  For a smuggler, Fuel Rules.  It's like the difference between saying I got from San Francisco to Sacramento in 70 minutes instead of the normal 90 minutes, or I got from San Francisco to Sacramento in under 65 miles instead of the 87 it actually is on the plotted routes.  Faster speed means more fuel, reduce the distance, you are there faster, and cheaper.

Falcon for the win.  Can't take the pretty Enterprise "offroad"

Nothing clever here.  Please, move along.
